Chapter 328: Revenge

At dawn, the gale stopped, and Tokyo fell into a deathly silence. Books.com ( . V o Dt . c o M) Through the faint morning light, one finds that the Odaira area in the center of Tokyo has disappeared, and only a few telephone poles and iron shelves stand alone.

There was still smoke coming from some of the poles. The fleeing crowd returned, walking apathically across the small bridge over the Sumida River, the river turning black, and countless charred corpses floating on the surface of the river, unable to distinguish between men and women. The overnight fire burned 250,000 buildings in Tokyo and left 1 million people homeless.

Less than 30 hours after the bombing of Tokyo, 317 B-29 bombers attacked Nagoya at night, turning the city's aircraft factory into flames. On the 13th, Osaka, the second largest city on the island with a population of 3 million, was also bombed by 300 B-29 aircraft.

1,700 tons of incendiary bombs fell from the sky, and about 20.7 square kilometers of urban area were burned in three hours. On March 16, bad luck befell Kobe when 2,300 tons of incendiary bombs turned it into a pyre of fire, and Kobe's shipbuilding center was reduced to nothing in the flames.

In just 10 days, the 21st Bomber Command flew a total of 1,600 sorties of B-29 bombers, and by the 19th, the air raids stopped because the US military ran out of incendiary bombs - in this continuous attack, US planes dropped nearly 10,000 tons of incendiary bombs.

Since the Molotov cocktail attack on March 9, the mood of the people of Tokyo has been very low. In particular, Li Mei's warning leaflet informed the people of the island countries of the target he was going to bomb in advance, which made them even more panicked and depressed.

A total of 8.5 million urban dwellers of the island nation had fled to the countryside, and the absenteeism rate of factory workers had reached 49 percent by July 1945. The island nation's wartime economy has reached the point of exhaustion – oil refining industry production has fallen by 83%; Aircraft engine production fell by 75%; Aircraft skeleton production fell by 60%; the production of electronic equipment fell by 70%; More than 600 major military factories were either blown up or severely damaged.

In the imperial palace of the island country, the military ministers who came and went were all nervously busy. For the bombing of the United States, of course, they will retaliate! However, they don't have such good bombers, and they don't have a close airfield that can provide planes to station.

Hirohito was furious and ordered the first weather bomb attack! At the launch sites in Chiba, Ibaraki, and Fukushima prefectures of the island nation, the commander received a message "Attack North America!" After the order, began a massive balloon of room rates.

Hu Zhiyong and Hou Dashun sat in the living room, staring nervously at the images transmitted by the satellite. No one could believe that the island country was so ruthless that 50,000 hydrogen balloons were lifted into the air at once, using not only bombs and incendiary bombs, but also nearly one-third of bacteriological bombs!

"Damn, the little devil is crazy!" Hou Dashun unscrewed a bottle of drink, put it to his mouth but forgot to drink it.

"It's a pity that the hydrogen balloon can't accurately control the landing on the intended target." Hu Zhiyong sighed, afraid that the New Mexico atomic bomb base would remain.

"Young Master, this is at night, why don't we take the opportunity to give it to him-" Hou Dashun stopped what he had not finished speaking, he believed that Hu Zhiyong should know what he meant.

"yes, we'll add spice to him!" Hu Zhiyong picked up the phone and called the Wolf Island base: "Two hydrogen bombs, target New Mexico." Listen to my orders and wait for launch! ”

"Yes!"

Sooner or later, the atomic bomb will come out, and if it can be postponed for 20 years, it will bring greater development opportunities to China. Once the level of excellent scientists is broken, this will give more business opportunities to Tianhua Kingdom after the war!

As it was the last few days of spring, the sky was cloudless and calm. The balloon of the island nation finally landed on the American continent. On this night, how many city dwellers were awakened by the explosion in their sleep, and there were also people in big cities who saw huge objects in the sky.

The United States panicked, and they fired shells at targets in the sky. Roosevelt was taken aback: "This is the island people taking revenge!" ”

"Your Excellency President, is New Mexico safe?"

Hopkins's inquiry surprised Roosevelt: "There is absolutely no problem on the ground, the Japanese are attacking from high altitudes!" Quick, give me a call from Robert Oppenheimer, director of the Los Alamos Laboratory. ”

With the help of Hitler in Germany, the hydrogen balloon still made a lot of improvements and controlled the direction very well. The bombs that landed in New Mexico kept falling and exploding, causing panic among all the scientists at once.

At this time, the two behemoths slowly descended like ghosts, and suddenly their fierce faces were revealed, and with an earth-shattering loud bang, a colorful and radiant fireball appeared in the sky, followed by a huge mushroom smoke cloud rising into the sky, and the entire Mexican desert was engulfed.

The living people looked up at the sky, and all the personnel saw this fireball shaped like a "gallbladder" hanging in the air, and boiling "bile" spewed out from the "gall" upward, forming a huge rainbow.

When the mushroom smoke cloud rose from 7,000 meters to an altitude of 14,000 meters at an alarming speed, the air flow and smoke generated by the explosion soared into the sky, reaching a height of more than 12 miles. 80% of the buildings on the ground were reduced to ashes, and there were corpses and ruins everywhere.

Robert Oppenheimer was in the underground fortifications, he thought it was a bomb that had detonated the atomic bomb they were assembling, and screamed in fear with trembling hands: "It's over, the atomic bomb blew itself up in New Mexico!" ”

"Ahh The phone in Roosevelt's hand fell to the ground with a thud, and his eyes glared blankly.

"Mr. President, troops must be sent and news must be blocked. Also, send the fire brigade and the hospital to deal with it! "Hopkins is very calm, this matter is not handled well, the president has to resign or face the doubts of Congress and the people.

Thankfully, New Mexico has a small population, and the site of the explosion is on the edge of the Great Desert. How many of the more than 1,000 scientists will survive, none of them knows. The huge scientific research institutions of the "Manhattan Project" may no longer exist!

"According to the report, after testing by scientists, the island nation used a large number of bacteriological weapons. The area is almost all over the Americas! ”

Hopkins took the test sheet and said to the captain of the presidential guard: "Order all hospitals to distribute epidemic prevention medicines, call Hu Jiasanshao, and ask him to provide us with enough vaccines and medicines!" ”

"Yes!"

Epidemic prevention and disinfection drugs, vaccines and treatments, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, streptomycin, gentamicin, hyomycin, and minocycline were all ordered by the United States at once. Hu Zhiyong hurriedly ordered various pharmaceutical factories to work overtime and generously provide prescriptions to the Americans.

In order to impart epidemic prevention knowledge and assistance, Hu Zhiyong sent more than 2,000 doctors, nurses and medical experts. Numerous transport planes with a large number of instruments, equipment and personnel set off from Hong Kong, the Far East and Phoenix.

"The little devil is ruthless, so ruthless!" Hou Dashun wiped the sweat on his face and kept repeating these words.

The epidemic area is almost all over the United States and Canada. The sky was sprinkled with golden grains of wheat and millet, and a white-yellow powder mist fluttered like a veil. When people feel that something is crawling on their calves, they look down and see that there are many red fleas crawling on the surface of their feet.

The infected person feels weak and feverish, has an unbearable headache, and his cheeks are inflamed and swollen. Within a few days, the affected area spread from the face to the chest, the blood collected under the skin turned purple-black, and the body quickly shrank due to dehydration, like a shriveled mummy in the desert.

Cholera, typhoid, plague, erythrhoea and other germs broke out at the same time, and the Japanese army achieved leading results in this regard at the expense of huge sums of money and countless lives. If it weren't for Hu Zhiyong's precautions, the number of people who died in the plague in the United States this time would have been countless times more than the number of soldiers who died in the war!

The United States got the prescription provided by Hu Zhiyong, but he did not have the raw materials in his hands. In desperation, he had to take out a large amount of gold and dollars to buy the finished drugs produced by Tianhuaguo.

Hospitals are crammed with people, tents and streets are full of patients. Ignoring the danger, Roosevelt personally went out into the streets to visit the helpless crowd. At the drug distribution office of the Huaxia medical institution, there is a long queue waiting for life-saving medicines.

"Your Excellency President, Hu Zhiyong has taken out all the medicines this time, and his pharmaceutical factory is going all out to produce them!" Seeing Roosevelt's gaffe, Hopkins changed the subject and said: "Nearly eighty percent of Manhattan engineers were killed or wounded, and all the facilities of the base were destroyed!" ”

"Let's stop!" Roosevelt let out a long exhale, and said with a blank look.

"Epidemic prevention is not a one-time thing, it takes three months. Hu Zhiyong promised that there would be no major casualties, and that all the corpses and animals in the countryside and the marginal areas must be burned and buried! In addition, actions to deal with manure pits, eliminate mosquito and fly breeding sites, and inspect water sources need to be taken urgently. ”

"The plan to attack the North Pacific remains unchanged, stop the rest of the world! We must fight the battle of the plague, huge losses cannot be avoided, and the number of deaths must be reduced! Roosevelt gradually regained his former shrewdness and began to give orders.

“YES！”

The bombing and retaliation have greatly damaged the morale of the two countries. The losses of the United States are much greater than those of the island countries, and the most distressing thing is that the atomic bomb that is about to be assembled was detonated, and a large number of its own experimental data and scientific and technological workers died.

The most distressing thing for those people in Congress is that more than a dozen billion dollars and dozens of tons of gold have been spent in the long plague war, and they have to approve this plan, otherwise, the people will pick up their guns and come to the door to fight with them!

What Roosevelt feared did not come to fruition, and anti-Japanese sentiment grew even higher. "The island nations do not have sufficient reserves of hardware and other materials necessary to make weapons, so they have to seek new weapons, and bacteriological weapons are one of them," Hopkins told the commanders of the military department. ”

Bacteriological weapons are low-cost, lethal, and can create an atmosphere of terror and demoralize opponents. The American officers were outraged: "We must retaliate!" ”

"No!" Roosevelt pointed to Southeast Asia and said: "First report to the island country to keep it, we will take Southeast Asia, and finally go to the island country to settle the account!" ”
